Topic One : Styrofoam Sculpture

Styrofoam is a trademark name for 'POLYSTYRENE THERMAL ISULATION' material. it can be used as building materials, pipe isulation, floral and craft products. 

Our first topic is Styrofoam Scuplture. Where we were paired up and given a styrofoam block to sketch and then to carve it into a Swan.


The utensils needed are :



  • Charcoal pencil
  • Knife or cutter ( 2 sizes , small and big)


The steps are :
1. Firstly we need a block of styrofoam (originally square shape). Then draw a shape of a swan using  
    the charcoal pencil. 



2. By using a cutter or knife, carefully trimmed the styrofoam. Remove all the part that unneeded until   
    you get a bla bla a swan shape.
3. Trims after trims, you will get something like this.
4. Then draw wing for the swan before trim it until it looks like this.



5. Trim again until smooth. Then it's doneeeee!
